Austria’s Former Foreign Minister Urges EU Nations to Engage Russia Independently

Former head of Austria’s Foreign Ministry, Karin Kneissl, has called on each European Union nation to establish its own dialogue with Russia, rather than delegating negotiations to a single representative from the entire bloc.

Kneissl made the statement on June 1 at the New Media Workshop. She stated: “It’s not that difficult—they all have ambassadors here; there’s no need to invent anything.”
